I was wondering if I could ask someone who has somea minute to answer me the following questions that came up during our fist games of netrunner.I would really appreciate it Thank you very much!!

1.Is there only one console allowed in play? Are all consoles labled as "unique" cards?

2.Is the root only available in central servers? How does the corporation install an upgrade in a remote server?

3.If a card gives damage to the runner, who picks the card to discard? If the runner's handsize gets reduced during a run, can he wait until the discard phase to discard his extra cards or does this resolve immediately?

4.When "Private Security Force" is scored by the corporation can it be used multiple times in one turn?

5.Can the top of R&D or the facedown cards in the archives be "exposed"?

7.Can the corporation trash or reassign cards in servers? Same for runner? Can the runner trash programs/hardware/ressources at any time or only to install new ones or not even then?

8.If the runner uses "Wyrm" to reduce the strength of a piece of ice to 0 and "Parasite" is hosted on this ice, does the ice get trashed? Can icebreakers only be used during a run? Does "Parasite" get trashed if the ice gets trashed? If the ice would get trashed what happens the other installed ice, do they stay in place or do they move up to fill the empty spot?

9.If a subroutine trashes a program, who's choice is it which program is trashed?

10.Can I use two different icebreakers/installed cards to break subroutines on the same piece of ice? Can I use one icebreaker to reach the strength and another to break the subroutines(even if the strength would be to low for this ice)?

yes. no.

yes. it is instaled like other cards, runer don't know which card is asert/upgrade/agenda

yes

can trash cards in server only when instal card in this server,can trash ice protecting server when instal ice to protect this server, runner can only trash program durinq instal new program

yes. no(you can increase strenght of icebreaker in any moment).yes,they move to fill empty space.

corporation

10.Can I use two different icebreakers/installed cards to break subroutines on the same piece of ice? Can I use one icebreaker to reach the strength and another to break the subroutines(even if the strength would be to low for this ice)?

yes, no all icebreaker that interact with ice must have enougth strength

1.Is there only one console allowed in play? Are all consoles labled as "unique" cards?

Yes. Note: unique is different from console. Only one console can ever be installed (and it's difficult to trash a console that has been installed, though possible). But for unique cards, only one copy of a unique card can be rezzed/installed at a time. Two different concepts.

2.Is the root only available in central servers? How does the corporation install an upgrade in a remote server?

Yes. You just install it into the remote like an asset.

3.If a card gives damage to the runner, who picks the card to discard? If the runner's handsize gets reduced during a run, can he wait until the discard phase to discard his extra cards or does this resolve immediately?

The discard is random. Have runner shuffle hand and corp draw a card randomly. If handsize is reduced, you always discard down to handsize at the end of a turn.

4.When "Private Security Force" is scored by the corporation can it be used multiple times in one turn?

Of course.

5.Can the top of R&D or the facedown cards in the archives be "exposed"?

7.Can the corporation trash or reassign cards in servers? Same for runner? Can the runner trash programs/hardware/ressources at any time or only to install new ones or not even then?

Not sure what you mean by "reassign." But yes, if you install a new asset or agenda in a remote, it trashes the previous one there. For ice it is slightly different. You can trash a piece of ice when installing a new piece of ice, but the new ice doesn't take its place, it goes as the outermost piece of ice in a server. For programs, when installing one, you may trash another one if you want, and must if the new install goes over your memory limit. You cannot install over resources or hardware with new resources or hardware.

Yes. Icebreakers can accept their paid ability outside of a run (I think) but I've never seen a reason for you to do this. But icebreakers may only ever interact with ice during a run, and only the piece of ice currently being encountered. The timing diagrams are quite clear about this in the rulebook. And yes, if Parasite trashes an ice, Parasite also trashes. The ice "move down." Think of the ice like a stack of trays.

9.If a subroutine trashes a program, who's choice is it which program is trashed?

It depends on what the subroutine says. If it says "Trash 1 program," it is talking to the corp. If it says, "The runner trashes 1 program," then the runner trashes.

10.Can I use two different icebreakers/installed cards to break subroutines on the same piece of ice? Can I use one icebreaker to reach the strength and another to break the subroutines(even if the strength would be to low for this ice)?

Yes. No. To interact with a piece of ice, the icebreaker wanting to interact must be at or greater than the ice's strength.

Also, if you like to learn from watching gameplay, Rahdo did a series of them shortly after the game's release in 2012(and so he is focused on cards that would be limited to the core set). He addresses some, not all, or your questions during his extended play through.

You cannot install over resources or hardware with new resources or hardware.

By reassign i meant to move an agenda/upgrade/asset from one remote server to another, one that's maybe better protected.

I hope I got this right(I know there can be exceptions, if a card says otherwise):

- No cards can simply be trashed and not beeing replaced.- Programs/assets/agendas/ice can only be "replaced".- Hardware/Ressources/Upgrades can't be trashed nor "replaced"(hence the console problem xD).

No, they are trashed face-up. In general: corp cards that are face-up are trashed face-up, cards that are face-down are trashed face-down. Also, if runners trash cards when accessing servers, those cards are trashed face-up.

Some cards have a trash icon and/or trash ability. Those can be trashed if the condition on the card is met.

Upgrades can also be "replaced". If the corp installs a card in a server, that card can replace any card that was previously installed in that server.

Regarding resources: if you install a unique resource with one already being present, the old one is trashed. For example, if you have a Temüjin Contract installed, and you install a new one, you trash the old Temüjin Contract. There can be only one.
